USS Midway (CVA-41) 1975 Cruise Sweatshirt

USS Midway (CVA-41) was on station in the Western Pacific during the remarkable 1975 cruise — including Operation Frequent Wind in April 1975, the historic evacuation of Saigon as South Vietnam fell to North Vietnamese forces. Midway's flight deck was used to land South Vietnamese aircraft and evacuate refugees, and her sailors improvised under impossible conditions to save thousands of lives. It was one of the most extraordinary events in the history of American naval aviation. This sweatshirt commemorates that unforgettable cruise.
